It was like a miracle to see your post today. I am beyond sorry to hear for your loss. I am so happy Thor was happy his last 8 months. Thank you so much for your post back to me. Basil had lots os stuff done to her the other day. She was diagnosed with secondary megacolon and a tiny stricture. She had to get put to sleep with anasteshia the other week and have her colon completely emtied. She was so constipated she could have died. Luckily it wasn't in her small intestine. She is on 5 medications as I write this.
1. 3cc Amoxicilian
~ Prevent Infection
2. 6cc Tramadol
~ Pain {From procedure they did}
3. 1cc Lactulose
~ Stool Softener
4. 1 tablet Prednisone
~ To help with her swollen intestine
5. 3cc Metoclopramide
~ To stop the acid reflex {caused from the anestesia}
She gets:
1. Morning/Night
2. Night
3. 1cc Morning/2cc mixed in food/1cc night
4. Morning
5. Night
I bring her back to the Specialist next week for a follow up. We are looking at long term medication. So we will be adjusting her doses and possible changing some things around. Hopefully soon she will only be on one or two medicines. But, she is thriving so far! Today a bit of a problem, but nothing to worrying. Just got in the darn cat food again. |
